There are many reasons not to leave home, but the best reason is to meet Brazil

Brazil is another heavyweight of the world. Cities, beaches, and the world’s largest rainforest all call Brazil home, and it’s not surprise that it’s routinely voted as one of the world’s best destinations to visit. In Rio, you can sample the carnival-like atmosphere and see the highlights of Sugar Loaf Mountain and the Christ the Redeemer Statue.

In the south, you can take an Amazon river cruise and get up close and personal with one of the world’s most enchanting waterways, all the while having the chance to spot the Amazon’s extensive wildlife. When you want a break from exploring, park yourself at Porto de Galinhas and do nothing but watch the world go by.

If you could spend the rest of your life exploring one country, you could do worse than choose Brazil in South America. This part of the world is not only huge; it also contains just about everything you could want from life.

Love bustling cities? Brazil has them. Love wildlife, rainforests, and beyond? It has them too. Love beaches? Come on…you know they’ve got them! Alas, most of us can’t travel all our lives. So if you have a limited amount of time to explore the country, where do you go? Here are many options worth considering.
